Solution found to fight against motor neurone disease

According to a new research conducted in University of Sheffield is offering successful solutions that will help to slow down the progression of motor neurone disease (MND). This will help to control the disease and slow down the speed of the cells. One of the experts, Dr Caterina Bendotti explained that, “MND is a clinically heterogeneous disease with a high variability in its course which makes assessments of potential therapies difficult. Thanks to the recent evidence in our laboratory of a difference in the speed of symptom progression in two MND models carrying the same gene mutation and the successful collaboration with Professor Pamela Shaw and her team, we have identified some mechanisms that may help to predict the disease duration and eventually to slow it down. I strongly believe that the new hypotheses generated by this study and our ongoing collaboration are the prerequisites to be able to fight this disease.”
